OJ – A drop-in replacement for Vite in Rust

SMRTR summary

OJ is a Rust-native build tool for React apps that targets memory efficiency and cold start performance — areas where Vite becomes costly in CI, agent, or multi-tenant environments. Benchmark results show OJ using 43–115MB of server memory versus Vite's 361MB–1.75GB, an 8–15x gap. It supports SSR, HMR, TanStack Start, and Vite-compatible plugins with no source changes required.
